~Songs of the Week 2019 - Judgement~
Here it is! The complete Song of the Week playlist for 2019! A lot of these songs came from moments of fun, but some were from moments of reevaluation, which I did a lot of this past year. Listen to it in order, and experience my 2019 in song~ 💙
~Final Song of the Week for 2019~
I don’t wanna keep on wishin', missin' The still of the morning, the color of the night I ain’t spendin' no more time Wasted~ 💙
I’m tired of looking back. I’m tired of giving up. That’s what I’ve done this whole decade since I graduated back in 2012. I’ve wasted so much time trying to recapture what I’ve given up on. Trying to capture what I’ve lost. In turn, I’ve lost the moments that I could have grown. I’ve lost the moments I could have lived.
2019 in biblical numerology (as cool as it is, take it with a grain of salt) means perfect (20) judgement (19). Sounds heavy, but that’s how I feel this year was for me. I finally realized all that I’ve been doing wrong. I finally realized how comfortable I had become with so much. That includes the job I’m working at now. I need to leave. I need to grow. I’m tired of being under their thumb. I stayed because I hoped it would be like it used to be. Sounds like a lot of things in my life. I feel like I’ve been waiting for things to be like they used to be because I’ve given up on so much. Because I’ve missed so much.
They never will be. Those days are gone. It’s time to look at the now, and be the man I’m supposed to be. I’ve got dreams. I’ve got plans. And those things won’t come to fruition if I’m wasting away. This next decade, I’m making it happen. I’m going to be a voice actor. I’m going to be a video game historian. I’m going to be who God wants me to be. No more wasting time. It’s time to live.
~Song of the Week~
Can you help me out, can you lend me a hand? It's safe to say that I'm stuck again Trapped between this life and the light I just can't figure out, how to make it right...
Retrospective Note 2020: I remember on one of my walks, it started to rain... it felt good.
~Song of the Week~
När ingen vill tro på dej Lyssna på mej Du kan alltid tro på mej Jag lyssnar på dej...
Just found out that Marie Fredriksson of Roxette fame, passed away yesterday after a 17 year battle with cancer. Her musical contributions as a solo artist, and fellow band-mate with Per Gessle as Roxette, absolutely rocked the world of the 80s and 90s, and that train never stopped despite her diagnosis back in 2002. She was a fashion icon, and a powerful vocalist.
In her honor this week, I wanna share a song off of her second studio album, before she was recognized worldwide outside of Sweden where she's from. Rest well Marie. Thank you for the music. Thank you for everything~ 💙
A SOLID collection of my top 100 songs from 2019! It features "I Want You" by Savage Garden, my top most listened to song of the year! A rediscovered hit, I'll never lose again. It has that, as well as other great songs from artists I discovered like Vonda Shepard and John Farnham! Enjoy~ :D
Michael W. Smith and The Beatles are a constant for me, whereas this year, I took time to discover more of Sting's, Madonna's, and Bowie's discography. Thanks for joining me on my musical journey through 2019! Share your results with me from here~ 💙
~Song of the Week~
Got to walk out of here, I can't take any more Gonna stand on that bridge, keep my eyes down below Whatever may come and whatever may go That river's flowing, that river's flowing~ 💙
Retrospective Note 2020: This song is probably more relevant now what with COVID and how it, along with many others in the world, have lost their jobs, but even still, near the end of 2019, bills felt like they were pilling up, and money was getting shorter.
I’ve mentioned this many times in my past entries, and it’s exciting to think that I’m getting to the point now where I probably won’t be talking about that place ever again. Until then, I shared this song during a moment of great worry. No jobs were responding to my applications, and whenever I’d follow up, I was either ignored or rejected. It was the first time I had ever dealt with something like this, and we were starting to worry if I’d ever get out of that church. It would be a tough rest of the year, but miraculously as always, God provided the exact amount we needed to get through the month. We always had food, and we always had bills paid.
I kept putting myself out there, and eventually, found that wonderful daycare job that I’m at right now. At the moment, I’m unemployed, but hopefully they reopen soon. It’s scary, but it’s comforting knowing that I’m not alone. It helps to know that. It also helps to remember that God provided every time, so I’m trusting in Him just the same.

The moment I let go of it was the moment I got more than I could handle The moment I jumped off of it Was the moment I touched down~ 💙
~Song of the Week~
We're all someone's daughter We're all someone's son How long can we look at each other Down the barrel of a gun...
This vocalist just popped into my Spotify radio a few days ago. I can’t believe I haven’t heard of him before, but boy am I honored to hear him for the first time. After hearing this one, I wanted more. Already he’s become one of my favorite artists. I just can’t stop listening~ 💙
